Re: [flexcoders] What will Apollo do for me.

It will also allow for local caching which might help with performance
increases as well as file I/O (which I believe you already have with zinc?).

I've written a fair bit about Apollo on my blog (some factual, some opinoin)
and there's the mxna smart category. Mike
Chambersand
Ryan  Stewart
also write quite frequently about it
and there is a podcast interview at talkcrunch with Kevin
Lynchas
well as an overview
on techcrunch that
has had a fair amount of attention.

Hope that helps :)

Looks like it will support access to the file system, and support to the
'windowing api' so I think you can do some nice things with it.
